Pray and Wait

There is one thing I can find troubling, to be patient with myself and others.  The patience with others can be easier than being patient with myself.  

I pray for patience and then forget the way patience is tested.  Of course my day is chaotic, of course the quick trip to the convenience store was painfully long, of course I get frustrated!  But, I asked for it didn't I?  Oh, I sure did.  

Pray for a virtue and don't forget that the storm is coming! The gold is tested in the fire and praying for patience will ignite the fire.
